Green Line LRT in My Community Green Line LRT in My Community What we heard report At-Grade Stations 4 Street S.E., Highfield, Lynnwood/Millican, Ogden, South Hill, Quarry Park, Douglas Glen, Shepard April 2018 Project overview On June 26, 2017, City Council approved the full vision for the Green Line LRT. The vision for Green Line includes a 46 km route from 160 Avenue North to Seton, and 28 stations. Construction on the first 20 km is anticipated to begin in 2020, and will extend from 16 Avenue N (Crescent Heights) to 126 Avenue SE (Shepard). Construction of Stage 1 is expected to be complete by 2026. Once Stage 1 is complete, extensions will be built as funds become available to complete the full vision. The purpose of the engagement was to gather input on safety and security, aesthetics and landscaping, and access to stations to help develop guiding technical documents that will be used during construction of Green Line – Stage 1. Engagement overview In January and February 2018, The City of Calgary held open houses and pop-up sessions with community members to provide information about the Green Line LRT - Stage 1 and to collect input on station design, station area look and feel, safety and security and community experience. From January 18, 2018 to February 13, 2018 The City of Calgary hosted an online survey on its engagement portal at engage.calgary.ca/GreenLine to solicit feedback from Calgarians. Input collected from the public will be reflected in the technical documents that will guide the construction of Green Line – Stage 1. Open house sessions for at-grade stations were held at the Glenmore Inn on January 25, 2018 and the Millican Ogden Community Association on February 3, 2018. Pop-up sessions were held at the Remington YMCA on January 20, 2018, Jack Setters Arena on January 28, 2018, Ogden Safeway on February 3, 2018, Village Ice Cream on February 10 and Riverbend Sobeys on February 11, 2018. Over 277 people attended the open houses and pop-up sessions and over 160 people provided responses to the online survey for the at-grade stations. Over 940 comments were collected in-person and over 3040 responses were inputted online. Note: As part of the online engagement, participants had the ability to indicate whether their feedback applied to one specific station only or they could choose to apply their feedback to all stations of the same type (e.g. all at grade stations). As a result of participants selecting that their feedback should be applied to all stations of the same type, some verbatim feedback and element themes are identical. 1/223 Green Line LRT in My Community What we heard report At-Grade Stations 4 Street S.E., Highfield, Lynnwood/Millican, Ogden, South Hill, Quarry Park, Douglas Glen, Shepard April 2018 What we asked – In-person and online Station Design 1. Now that you’ve seen the concepts for the station designs (below grade, at grade, above grade) what do you like or not like about the concepts? Why? Station Area Look and Feel 1. What do you like or not like about the station areas elements? Safety and Security 1. What elements would make you feel safe and secure while waiting for the train at a station (lighting, help phones, security cameras, etc.)? 2. Do you have any safety or security concerns or issues at station areas? Why? Community Experience 1. What are some ideas to make station space, plazas and platforms a desirable place to meet and spend time? Why? 2. As a transit customer, what amenities and services would you like to have at Green Line stations (e.g. bike racks, heated shelters, real-time traveller information, etc.) To read a more detailed summary of the input see the section: What we heard – Summary of Input To read all verbatim comments received see the section: What we heard – Verbatim Contents Next Steps Public engagement on the Green Line LRT in My Community was completed on February 13, 2018. This What We Heard Report was shared with Calgarians on the City’s engage portal at calgary.ca/GreenLine. Input received from the January and February 2018 engagement opportunities may be considered in the next steps of the Green Line LRT – Stage 1 and a “What We Did” report will be shared in 2019. Report back sessions were hosted in March 2018 on what we’ve heard through the series of public engagement opportunities in January and February 2018. 2/223 Green Line LRT in My Community What we heard report At-Grade Stations 4 Street S.E., Highfield, Lynnwood/Millican, Ogden, South Hill, Quarry Park, Douglas Glen, Shepard April 2018 What we heard – Summary of Input Station Design – In person and online summary Station Design Station Design themes: • Participants were supportive of the low-profile platforms and indicated that they were visually appealing and provided easy access. • Many positive comments about the modern station design were received, however, participants felt that there should also be a historic connection for the station in Ogden and suggested that public artwork could be used to depict local area elements. • Some participants indicated that the station design should be more colorful to prevent looking dirty overtime and possibly reduce instances of graffiti. • Participants indicated that the station should be accessible to all users. Having covered, safe bicycle parking and easy access for pedestrians in many directions at the station was recommended. • Considerations for maintenance like snow clearing and easy to maintain and attractive landscaping were important. • Participants would also like passenger comfort like heated areas and that plenty of seating sheltered from bad weather should be considered. 3/223 Green Line LRT in My Community What we heard report At-Grade Stations 4 Street S.E., Highfield, Lynnwood/Millican, Ogden, South Hill, Quarry Park, Douglas Glen, Shepard April 2018 Station Area Look and Feel - in-person and online summary Medians Overall themes: • Participants liked the natural look and feel of the median and indicated that it integrated well into the community and complemented the area. • Participants also liked that that this median was low maintenance and is cost effective. 4 Street S.E. themes: • Participants liked the natural/green look and low maintenance features of this this median and indicated that it would complement the area. • Some participants had concerns about maintenance/upkeep and didn’t find it overly visually appealing.

  • Service Alerts – Digital Displays
    Service Alerts – Digital Displays TriMet has digital displays at most MAX Light Rail stations to provide real-time arrival information as well as service disruption/delay messaging. Some of the displays are flat screens as shown to the right. Others are reader boards. Due to space, the messages need to be as condensed as possible. While we regularly post the same alert at stations along a line, during the Rose Quarter MAX Improvements we provided more specific alerts by geographical locations and even individual stations. This was because the service plan, while best for the majority of riders, was complex and posed communications challenges. MAX Blue Line only displays MAX Blue Line disrupted and frequency reduced.

    e: [email protected] w: www.quarrypark.ca QUARRY PARK NEWS QUARRY PARK NEWSLETTER JUNE 2017 WELCOME SUMMER! Summer is finally here and gardening season is in full swing! We all want our neighbourhood looking its very best, and well maintained lawns and boulevards go a long way to ensure that our community is safe, clean and attractive. Yard maintenance falls under Community Standards Bylaw 5M2004, which can be reviewed in detail at www.calgary.ca/CSPS/ABS/Pages/Bylaws-by-topic/Yards.aspx. We have listed a few of the main topics addressed in the bylaw below: Grass and Weeds Owners/occupiers of a property are generally responsible for caring for and maintaining their property and adjacent areas such as boulevards, sidewalks and lanes, up to the centre of the back alley. Keep weeds under control and don’t allow them to spread onto other properties. Any invasive plants and noxious weeds must be destroyed, but should not be placed in a composter as this will contribute to the seed spreading. Use pesticides responsibly, consider chemical- free alternatives, and advise your neighbours before you use a pesticide. The best time to water your lawn is early in the morning or after it cools off in the evening. Please make sure water isn’t running onto the street or sidewalk. For water-saving tips, visit the City of Calgary Water Services web site at www.calgary.ca/waterservices. Trees and Shrubs Trees and shrubs on public sidewalks and boulevards are maintained by the City of Calgary and are protected under the Tree Protection Bylaw.

  • South Shaganappi Study Report
    Item #7.2 Transportation Report to ISC: UNRESTRICTED SPC on Transportation and Transit TT2018-0822 2018 July 19 Page 1 of 8 South Shaganappi Study Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides a summary of the South Shaganappi Study which includes the 16 Avenue N and Shaganappi Trail interchange, the Shaganappi Trail and Memorial Drive intersection and Memorial Drive and Bowness Road interchange. The study was warranted by the re-classification of Shaganappi Trail south of Crowchild Trail N from a Skeletal Road to an Arterial Street in the 2009 Calgary Transportation Plan (CTP). The primary focus of Corridor Studies is to generate concepts that can be potentially implemented in 20 to 30 years and beyond. Developing concepts for infrastructure ahead of time helps to ensure land is protected for future infrastructure if needed or releasing land if not required. Having an approved concept also helps to achieve a land use vision for the area that complements the transportation vision. The South Shaganappi Study has incorporated public engagement as a critical part of the study, following the Corridor Study Policy approved by Council in 2014. Working with residents of adjacent communities, local community associations, and key stakeholders, the study team has developed short-term and long-term concept plans for transportation infrastructure in the study area. Concepts including a do-nothing option, a tight diamond interchange, a hybrid version with signals, an east-west couplet configuration, and at-grade intersections were evaluated for the long-term scenario. The Tight Urban Diamond interchange emerged as the preferred concept based on stakeholder input, safety, access and connectivity, multi-modal transportation, efficient traffic flow, land enhancement and financial capacity.
